Metzilah

The Metzilah Center was founded in 2005, to address the growing tendency among Israelis and Jews worldwide to question the legitimacy of Jewish nationalism and its compatibility with universal values. Metzilah was established with the conviction that Zionism and a liberal worldview can and must coexist; that public discourse, research and education hold the key to integrating Zionism, Jewish values, and human rights in the Jewish state; and that the integration of these values is critical for the enduring welfare of Israel and the Jewish people worldwide.
